Olympians and Paralympians Making a Difference in the Lives of LAUSD Students

Meet Our Olympians & Paralympians

Olympic and Paralympic champions are not extraordinary people. They are ordinary people who found a way to achieve extraordinary results in the area of life that mattered most to them. The lessons they learned along the way (goal setting, hard work, self-denial, teamwork, visualization, etc.) will help anyone succeed in life.

The Ready, Set, Gold! team is comprised of dozens of such individuals, each committed to helping young people in our community. Their mission is to enrich, inspire, motivate and educate students about health and fitness as long-term goals.

Our roster of world-class athletes includes 19 Olympic and Paralympic medalists, representing a multitude of different sports.
